About Me

Hello and welcome to my Blog. This was originally created for a school assignment, but I hope to update it every once in awhile with my different thoughts on my "Five E's of life".... Enjoy- Family and Life. Exist- Be present and live in the moment. Eat- I have a passion for cooking, baking, and EATING! Explore- Travel, get out and see the world, or just explore your own neighborhood!. Educate- Everyday be a student or a teacher. Never stop learning! I'm currently working on attaining my BA in Education Studies with the hopes of becoming an elementary school teacher. I am a mother to three and a proud Air Force wife. Originally from Sacramento, CA, we've spent the last 15 years living in Virginia, North Carolina and are back in England for our second tour.
